    When being bullied, do(would) you react aggressive(be honest)?

    I don't.
    Honestly, I sort of wish I did.
    I kind of just walk away and cry about it.​

    Yeah, pretty much.

    You wouldn't think so, but I'm not the kind of guy who likes taking **** from idiots.

    I've never really been bullied badly, but I hardly ever hit anyone. Only when they really piss me off.

    I'm like the peace maker in my family, so no. Fighting was never my option becuase I knew I would be toast. -_-; Sometimes I would stay silent about it for a while, and if they persist on bugging me, then I would report them to an adult or teacher. Sometimes I would feel like I was tattling, so I kind of quit that method after a while....

    Only if I have to <___<
    Slapping is proved to be very effective. Might backfire if you use it on other girls, though ;_;
    But then again, only if I have to : 3

    I only fight to either defend myself, or others that I care for(which aren't many).
    Usually I only resort to fighting when somebody puts their hands on me first, in which then I will try and restrain that person, rather than hitting back full-on.
    The only other time I would resort to fighting, is when I am in an extremely bad mood(in other words, on the cliffside of breaking down) which doesn't usually happen.
    So yeah.

    No. I wage mental warfare on them. They never see it coming.

    Yeah, I'm kind of like that.

    I was bullied when I was in first grade. It got to a point where I was afraid of going to school. I was bullied by two boys and I wasn't really one that would fight back, so I kept it as a secret for a while. Eventually, my parents found out and so did the school, and then those boys left me alone. But now, I would probably only fight back to defend myself. Or, if I'm really pissed off, then yeah, it'd be better to stay away from me. >>;

    it works like this. don't mess with me, don't mess with my friends. as long as they throw the first punch (unless its some creep like a pedo or something), I won't punch back. And when I do start fighting, then I find it appropriate to only stop when they say when ^_^ (catch my drift?)

    While I personally can't resort to violence, since my greatest weapon is to sit on someone (300 lbs and EXTREMELY out of shape), I do believe that people do have a right and responsibility to defend themselves and others who are too weak. However, always, ALWAYS, try to talk or mediate first. Violence is a final refuge. Not, as the saying goes, of the incompetent or the stupid, but of ANYONE. Fighting should always be a last resort, so my advice to anyone who may need to is to first brush up on your diplomatic skills, THEN your fighting skills.

    The only time I have used violence is when I have had to, I'll never be the one to hit first.

    I was bullied pretty bad when I was in school, but I chose to use my mind to get the better of them instead. Besides I always told myself that High School wont last forever.

    Ironically I have been in more fights since I started University than I ever was throughout school. I have started none of them, I just seem to have a habit of being in the wrong place at the wrong time when someone is pissed.

    The only other time I have used violence is when my little sister got beat up. She was in 5th grade and the guys who beat her up were in my year (7th grade at the time), I was off school one day and they beat the hell out of her, pushed her down a bank and kicked her, threw all her stuff around etc, the next day I went into school and beat the **** out of them. You don't beat up kids that are two years younger than you. I regret using violence to exact revenge, but they never picked on another kid again.

    Yes, yes, YES! I have been bullied so much at school that I just take it and walk away. But, I would SO MUCH want to be able to just punch those b*tches in the face, tell them that I'm not taking their sh*t anymore!

    Well, thankyou for bringing out my emotion, I'm gonna go egg a house

    No, I'm too kind-haerted and laid back to fight, if anything I'll scream and yell xD.

    I usually want to...and I'd do it more often then I'd like to admit if I was a better fighter...

    Although I'm better than pretty much any bully at insulting people...so I guess I don't need to resort to violence. Sadly, most of the time I just ignore them...Eh.

    im ashamed to say i have hit people when ive gotten angry or feel frustrated to an extent where i can do anything. but it never makes me feel any better so the moral of the story has to be that there are better ways to express yourself to those your angry at and everyone around you.
